Colcot Primary

The school was opened in 1952 and has two main buildings housing the Nursery, Early Years and Key Stage Two pupils. Currently there are 301 pupils on roll and the nursery provides 26 places for each half day session, the children can start the nursery in the term after their third birthday.

The school is surrounded by fabulous grounds and has magnificent views over the Vale of Glamorgan. The large fields offer a wonderful opportunity to enhance the children's learning by supporting aspects of the curriculum. The children have plenty of space to enjoy different sporting activities during the day and as part of the extensive after school clubs on offer.

A strength of the school is the strong and supportive relationship it has with parents and the local community. We work together to promote and foster a love of learning and encourage the pupils to strive to reach their full potential. Our aim is to nurture a caring and positive attitude in all our children, giving them the skills and opportunities to develop into successful young people. This is achieved through setting high expectations for everyone.
